This is a wonderful story by the Master. I have to admit I was surprised at the end, as it was more of a John Saul tiwister than Koontz. He has the tendacy to force all the action at the last 10 pages, which earned him four instead of five star. ( )

Another great old school Koontz novel. Non stop action, one of the fasted paced Koontz books i have had the pleasure of reading so far. While in some ways the killers identity is obvious, the genius that Koontz is, he gets you to second guess yourself constantly while keeping you guessing at other mysteries in the book such as the main characters past. The last 50 or so pages of the book were phenominal imo, very suspensful and action packed. With all this being said though, its still a relativly forgettable book when compared to the bulk of the greats Koontz has written like Lightning and Intensity. Aside from the main character, the characters were pretty weak and plain to me, didnt care about them very much. Bottom line is, its still a very entertaining and fast read no matter what. ( )

Hard to put down thriller! Although the story is short, it doesn't leave you feeling as if something is missing or the story rushed. Enough twists and turns that the killer is not easily guessed (but I couldn't stand the suspense and read ahead). Not too gory, but definitely some bloody and disturbing scenes...some steamy love scenes as well. I would recommend this book to others! ( )

Nice quick read that kept me guessing. I thought I had it figured out, then realized I had it all wrong. There were a few very obscure clues on to the true identity of the villian, but not something that I look back on and could have truly figured out. The author here did a good job of telling a story, but less of a job of providing the clues necessary for the reader to figure out. Having said that, the characters in the story were completely in the dark as well until all was revealed in the end to the reader and the characters. Everything cleaned up nicely in the end. No need to revisit these characters. Good if you want something quick on a flight or over a weekend, but don’t expect a great story here. ( )

Gyros, könnyedén szórakoztató pszichothriller. ( )
